What a great weekend. Played in 4 games ran one. Found great deals in the Dealer Hall. Found a WWI FOW German Army in the flea market. Sold out all my unwanted items at the Saturday Flea Market. Great job by the staff. Met a great group of guys on Thursday night from Massachusetts and played two Saga games with them. Steak dinner with Jim and Mark. I was even nominated to run for the BOD by Cliff….Dad and George are having a good laugh about that upstairs. Dealer friends George, Matt and Jim said they had a great show. Looking forward to a great year of gaming!!!!!

I really enjoyed myself as well. Considering the construction, I actually had a very smooth convention. Well done!!!

I had a good time. Played in two fantastic TFL games (Chain of Command & IABSM) and watched many others. Kept my spending down to the lowest ever (I think…).

The drive stinks, but what can you do?

Always great to see you RLTW, along with Marc, Cliff, Jim and Mike among others. I enjoyed sitting in on the AWI 54mm game Saturday night; you really need to loosen up, you're way too serious at these conventions……….;)………….Flame retardant sheets gets me everytime, as does the carnival barking you do around my booth to draw potential buyers………..and hey, it worked as that old west dentist's office sold…….so glad your Dad and I were friends as you and I became friends as well, the greatest gift your Dad ever gave me.

Despite the Host shaking things up with renovations, I had a great show. Ran a game, played in 2 more. Disappointed the 55 Days in Peking game had to be cancelled.

How about registration? I pre-reg and I was in, searched my name, printed out my Badge, 2 Game tickets in all of 3 min, BOOM! Fantastic job with that system. I have not had that service since Nittany Beverage in College, drove in and they loaded my car with Beer. (In and Out) Awesome.

Thank you to Staff, Vendors, GMs and Friends for a great show.

Considering the challenges of the venue, I thought it was a great convention.

I enjoyed myself and sales were up. Some of the construction as annoying, but it was handled. Sure hope they get the parking lot at the Expo Center paved before Historicon!

Scott, you realize the parking lot for the vendor hall will soon be down the hill? I understand the area that used to be the parking lot will no longer be used for that. The plans call for some kind of garden area with benches. Loading in/out at Historicon may be interesting. Time will tell……
